Hi Guys
I have seen this site before.
The important things to note in this case are:
1 – He is not an Affiliate. He is working on some sort of paid campaign with Slickstreet Marketing.
2 – As far as I can tell the money is coming out of his pocket.
3 – It seems that he is trying to get purchasing players by paying them himself with the hope that they will end up eanring him more than his $50 (not sure what the payment model is for this guy).
Either way interesting link.
Fortune Affiliates has no objection to Affiliates paying for players (if you guys want to do it) out of their own pocket.
BUT it needs to be done within certain guidelines.
Clearly paying people to make 2 minimum purchases to take advantage of our CPa and then recovering money from the CPA payment is not the idea.
If you want to pay a player to register with a small bonus (extra $10 or something similar) this can help your acquisitions.
The gamble is that they may not go on to purchase.
Alternatively you can pay people to register and purchase.
The gamble here being they may not make your money back for you.
This works well on a share-based model where immediate payback is not a huge concern.
Thanks.
